dude, its ok to admit where CUSA is. Look at where the SBC was at in 2013 when App joined. 10 years later its a completely different situation. Maybe JSU will help lead a renaissance for CUSA. As it stands, Cusa is bottom of the barrel. TXST wouldn't join at this juncture. A lot is going to have to change for CUSA to be back in a position to entice a TXST to join.

Personally, i think that ship has sailed, permanently. But i don't make the rules, i could be wrong.

And no they are not an option because CUSA hasnt and will not invite them.

This clown is a troll and I can’t believe this many people have given jacksonville?/Jackson? States biggest keyboard warrior that much attention. Best to ignore the dumb dumbs, let em wait until CUSA folds and they’re begging the WAC for an invite.

Not trolling just truthful. The trolls are those implying CUSA would invite Tx St.
CUSA doesnt need to take a SBC bottom team. Our league will be strong and will be near the top of the G5.

And no I dont go along with the SBC propaganda it improved. Yes some teams left CUSA for SBC, wow doesnt make CUSA worse.

SBC better worry about losing your best coach, Napier.

That being said... I'm sure the possibility of luring Texas State and/ or Arkansas State from the Belt has been brought up.
Surely it's has occurred to someone in the league office that - with the heavy Eastern lean of the new Sun Belt - its left their Western leaning schools a bit alienated.
I know it's not likely, but they do fit in with the CUSA western and eastern schools.

I don't think the Sun Belt West schools are or feel like the conference alienated them with the 4 new additions. Yes, 3/4 are further away from the West schools than any of the current schools in the East but the divisions are great. The West is spread out more but it is still very well aligned.

East: Georgia (2) > South Carolina (1) > North Carolina (1) > Virginia (2) > West Virginia (1)
West: Texas (1) > Arkansas (1) > Louisiana (2) > Mississippi (1) > Alabama (2)
